The Scrambler Trail Mid — Lightweight Barefoot Hiker is a mid-cut, barefoot-style hiking boot designed to pair a low-to-the-ground natural-foot feel with trail-ready protection; current price $119.99 and in stock. It’s offered in versions that include a waterproof XeroTex membrane (WP) and a breathable, lighter mesh option for warm, dry conditions.
Fit & comfort
The Scrambler Trail Mid prioritizes barefoot movement with a wide, foot-shaped toe box, a zero-drop sole profile, and a thin, flexible outsole that lets your feet bend and sense the terrain. A gusseted tongue keeps debris out, while the ripstop or durable mesh upper with welded overlays provides lightweight, flexible protection so the boot stays comfortable over long miles.
Trail performance & protection
The Scrambler Trail Mid delivers traction and ankle support suited to variable trails through a mid-cut design and a rugged outsole with larger lugs for confident grip and agility. The mid-height collar offers extra ankle protection for longer or more technical hikes, and the WP model adds a XeroTex waterproof membrane to keep feet dry in wet conditions.
